After leaving Scandal in 1984, vocalist Patty Smyth waited three years before launching her solo career with the Never Enough album. Although it sold respectably, it didn't have any major hit singles. Smyth returned to the top of the charts in 1992 with "Sometimes Love Just Ain't Enough," a duet with Don Henley; the single hit number two and went gold. Its parent album, Patty Smyth, also went gold and featured two other minor hits, "No Mistakes" and "I Should Be Laughing."

The US edition of The Singles has the 7" versions of "Heroes"/DJ/Ashes To Ashes/Fashion/Let's Dance/China Girl/Modern Love/Absolute Beginners/Jump They Say and a unique edits of Space Oddity/TVC 15/Loving The Alien/Day-In Day-Out. The first 40.000 pressings came with a bonus CD-single containing 'Peace On Earth/Little Drummer Boy' (duet with Bing Crosby).

The Singles Collection is another double-disc collection of basics running from 1969's "Space Oddity" to 1993's "Jump They Say." Apart from Bowie's live version of "Knock on Wood," "Alabama Song" from Scary Monsters, and his duet with Mick Jagger on "Dancing in the Street," there are no surprises here -- it's just simply a good collection of hits that will be useful to anybody who doesn't have them yet and not so useful to those who already do.
